DET WR Danny Amendola - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Minnesota Vikings
In the loss at Green Bay on Monday, Danny Amendola saw only one target. Since his big performance in the opener, Amendola has registered just five total receptions. There must be better WR options for you to start this week, especially versus a good Minnesota defense.

DET WR Danny Amendola - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Green Bay Packers
After missing the game two weeks ago due to a chest injury, Danny Amendola had an extra week to recover and should be back on the field on Sunday. He recorded 104 yards and a score in Week 1 but has only four grabs since. Amendola is best left on your bench in the tough matchup at Green Bay.

DET WR Danny Amendola - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Danny Amendola saw five looks from Matthew Stafford last week, leading to four receptions for 37 yards. The Lions ran only 60 offensive plays, with Stafford passing for just 201 yards. Out of the slot WR position, Amendola will continue to experience up-and-down games, making him a risky fantasy play. In what could be a high-scoring affair at Ford Field on Sunday, he makes for a WR3/flex option at best.

DET WR Danny Amendola - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Philadelphia Eagles
After a huge Week 1, Danny Amendola saw just one look from Matthew Stafford last Sunday and did not register a catch, despite being on the field for over half of the offensive snaps. Stafford has a lot of weapons, so it could be a rollercoaster year for the veteran. Amendola will remain the underneath option but is a risky fantasy start.

DET WR Danny Amendola - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. Los Angeles Chargers
What a nice Lions debut it was for Danny Amendola last Sunday at Arizona. On a team-leading 13 targets, he caught seven passes for 104 yards, including a 47-yard score. Sure, it was just one game, but Matthew Stafford loved throwing to Golden Tate in the slot. Expect another good outing for Amendola at Ford Field in the home opener versus a Chargers defense that was a bit shaky in its first game.

DET WR Danny Amendola - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Arizona Cardinals
After a decent season with the Dolphins, Danny Amendola joins the Lions and reunites with HC Matt Patricia. In Miami, the 33-year-old caught 59 passes but averaged just 9.7 yards per catch and scored only once. Golden Tate had some great years in the slot position with Detroit, so Amendola could be in line for a solid season. However, it’s advised he remains on your bench for the opener.

DET WR Danny Amendola - 2019 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
After a relatively quiet season in Miami, Danny Amendola gets a fresh start in Detroit. During his nine healthy seasons (he missed all but one game in ’11), the slot WR has averaged over 50 receptions for more than 500 yards. In three of the past four years, he has registered at least 59 catches for 10.2 yards per grab during that span.

Fantasy Downside
Playing with the Dolphins last season, Amendola scored just once and he has totaled only three TDs that past two years. The veteran has missed at least one game in each of the past four seasons and is on the downside of his career, turning 34 during the season.

Bottom Line
Golden Tate had a remarkable four-and-a-half seasons as the Lions slot receiver and Amendola looks to become Matthew Stafford’s new favorite third-down option. With the release of Theo Riddick before the preseason started, Stafford will be looking for a veteran. While Kenny Golladay and Marvin Jones will likely see most of the targets on the early downs, Amendola will still be an important part of the passing game. However, he shouldn’t be part of your lineup on draft day.
